Never played? Start here.
Golf is a great way to get outdoors, keep active and make new friends, and you don't need to be any good to enjoy it. Thanks to the handicap system, beginners and experienced golfers can play together on equal terms, so it's a game the whole family can share.
Getting started is easier than you think
- No clubs? No problem. Beginner sessions provide equipment, and you can hire clubs at the club.
- It's affordable. Taster sessions and beginner courses cost less than most people expect.
- Practise at your own pace. Our flexible membership includes the driving range, short-game area and putting green.
- Golf for everyone. Our PGA Professional is trained to coach golfers with a range of disabilities.
Ladies Starter Sessions
Friendly, ladies-only beginner courses with all equipment provided. Come along to a free taster session and see if you enjoy it.
Call 01924 496030 or 07793 619282 to book your place.

Our junior section welcomes young golfers of all abilities, from complete beginners to handicap golfers. Coaching runs on Saturdays and Monday evenings, with extra sessions in the school holidays and regular fun competitions. We also have a junior team in the HHUGDC league.
Just £3.50 per session, and junior membership is only £37.50 a year.
